Reactable

( techno ) Played by two visitors and exhibition guide Adriana Ramalho in the Eletronic Languege International Festival / FILE 2007 / São Paulo / Brazil.

The reactable, is a multi-user electronic music instrument with a tabletop tangible user interface. Several simultaneous performers share complete control over the instrument by moving physical objects on a luminous table surface. By moving and relating these objects, representing components of a classic modular synthesizer, users can create complex and dynamic sonic topologies, with generators, filters and modulators, in a kind of tangible modular synthesizer or graspable flow-controlled programming language.

This instrument is being developed by a team of digital luthiers (Sergi Jordà , Martin Kaltenbrunner, Günter Geiger and Marcos Alonso), at the Music Technology Group within the Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona, Spain.

Lol... thats just like complaining about the 24 hours a day standard or about math (we all hate it... we dont argue about it tough) people aint supposed to change the way music is... just to change how you compose it, play it, listen to it...

Great-freaky technologic advance :O

[errrzarrr]

Made in Spain!

I don't understand why the new technology still doesn't free the composer from the restraints of common time signatures and the 12-tone scale. The interface is revolutionary, without doubt, but the music itself is still attached to century-old music theory.
